TOT isn't coming back. It just points out that the majority don't prefer this new version, so Disney kind of just wasted a bunch of money for no good reason.
It’s a puny survey that doesn’t match with the well received public response. Wait times is still much longer than the original TZ version. Money is well spent and more is to come with the new Superheroes land.

Despite Infinity War, all major characters are expected to survive.

Wait times are longer with any new attraction. Even Nemo Subs has 2-3 hour lines. In 10 years, Mission BO will have the same waits as TOT did. A waste of money to downgrade an attraction for no increased value from the public.

The key to maintaining longer wait times is adding additional storylines. TOT was the same for years. It’s as if they didn’t know what to do with it. There is more value from the public. They didn’t buy the Groot bread and GofG merchandise for nothing. The people who couldn’t go on the Halloween version of MB have regrets.

So it's just when they decided to close it, did they come up with this great idea of late-checkout and the silver lake sisters huh? A lot of us didn't get to experience that.

But no ToT wasn't any good even with the 240 minute waits before its closing.

Bob Chapek is probably crying as he reads that user OldDisneylandReference420 doesn't like GOT:MB.

Oh wait, he's laughing as he swims in a pool of money since this poll is a minority (who will continue to visit the parks anyways) and not reflective of the major wait times MB routinely gets.

He's laughing that park goers and $hapek apologists are eating out of the palm of his hand.

Additional storylines? Having one solid storyline would help. Right now, its a collection of random scenes and quips.

With a ride that consists of 95% 2D screen effects and no motion simulation, you get the basic effect watching the Halloween version on youtube. And people buy whatever Disney makes available. Rose Gold ____, $20 popcorn buckets, pins, etc. People like to spend money at Disney parks.

Define major? I think RSR is still a consistently higher wait time. I mean, it does well considering its one of two themed E-ticket attractions at the park, but I wouldn't call the waits "major." I usually wait about 20-40 minutes, same as I did for TOT.

61 total don’t care, want something other then current and original, or prefer the new one.
When spending money, shouldn't you be looking at how many more people will like your new product vs keeping what you have in place? This poll shows while some people don't care, when it comes to people choosing new vs old, the replacement has fewer fans and resulted in a loss of interest rather than a gain.

The platform is moving while you’re watching the screens. It isn’t stopped like it was in TOT. People spend money, but Disney rather keep it to themselves than share it with TZ’s owners (CBS?).

I experienced it prior to closing. Didn’t do anything for me. It’s just in the dark. Of course the wait didn’t matter at this point. It’s like the final sale of the Sears closing. People are just grabbing the scraps. The final sale is crazy successful, but it’s not going to save the store.

Yeah, its randomly bobbing up and down like the elevator needs to pee or something. I wouldn't say it changes the experience. It's like watching vines while riding Maliboomer.

And you're right, Late Night Check Out wasn't for me either. TOT used real sets and practical effects beautifully. To turn them off just makes the ride feel empty.

Just checked right now, 70 minute wait. Yeah, I'd call that major.

RSR was part of a multi-year billion-dollar expansion. It better have a higher wait time.

I wish I could've, even if it was possibly a lame experience. I wouldn't compare it to Sears closing. People wanted to experience something great before a warehouse fortress powerplant took its place.

Actually this poll just shows some fans willingness to answer an unofficial unscientific poll on a Disney fan site. As with any poll you can glean whatever meaning out the results that you want to.

The real thing that Disney cares about is:

1. Are existing DLR fans willing to still ride after the change
2. For those that choose not to ride is there someone to take their place
3. Can new DLR fans be gained for repeat ridership

By all accounts the answer to all these questions is yes.

Seeing a lot of hate being thrown around about my poll. Don't be salty because it doesn't show what you want it to show. My poll deserves some love yo after all, it's you who are voting on it.

The issue is not the poll, the poll is fine, but the results are meaningless. In the end everyone is going to read whatever they want out of the results trying to prove a point. And as you've seen by the comments here you can twist these results to get whatever meaning you want.

Agreed ;) the fake news movement has everyone questioning everything and I can appreciate that.

I wouldn't call it fake news. I see it as everyone is using the same data and molding it to prove their point.

The real results are in the parks as I alluded to in my previous post, Disney only cares about the 3 points I mentioned.

Which is why no one should ever trust Disney surveys "results".
